I wrote the neosymbolist/Neoclassical mythology Etherith, which will soon be made various symphonies for, and also will be illustrated by various artists, its currently being edited too so i'm prepaing to launch it in its final form after its been on the shelve for years. It has been written explicitally to inspire classical artists or to restart a classical academic symbolist romantic tradition. And trying to find my kin with it. Maybe somehow I can find them with it my kin. I am primarily a sculptor, however the language for decorative sculpting is also, well, dead, I live in the nineteenth century with my old books. I read Schopenhauer, Sade, Huysmans, De Goncourts, many biographies, Cellini, most books before modernism really. heheh.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well deu to my interests my life is rather lonely i could use when some people knock on the door here. Maybe drink some wine and talk, about literature, art, anything, about modern life. About capitalism, consumption, Ikea. Everything or nothing. You can also just take advantage and sleep over there is no problem with that. I like the idea a lot people should just be able to sleep over at places for free, don't know when I may go to Paris or any capital of this once beautiful Europe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Took a piece from the Berlin wall for my rock collection. Well its not the most beautiful or the most significant. but my rock collection, like so much work that is heavy, got lost on me ow ow.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can talk about the past 200 years in art. Mainly the nineteenth century. Well i have a general knowledge, but it should be vast at least to what most people know they consider my knowledge vast.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Well i don't have much to sleep on yet and i got no door bell as soon as i get those fixed and somehow manage to clean up here i might invite or you might give me a call already but I should first make things a bit agreeable here then I won't be embarassed people have to sleep on a thin piece of matras or a broken couch mehhh. needs a bit of fixing you would be sleeping on top of my atelier there is an agreeable room I figure for this kind of thing.
